Trial summary

Respiratory distress after extubation is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Its multifactorial pathophysiology causes a loss of pulmonary aeration during the weaning process, the clinical translation being impaired gas exchange and the occurrence of respiratory distress.

About this study

Official title: Evaluating High-flow Nasal Cannula Oxygen Therapy Through Lung Ultrasound Score

Respiratory distress after extubation is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Its multifactorial pathophysiology causes a loss of pulmonary aeration during the weaning process, the clinical translation being impaired gas exchange and the occurrence of respiratory distress. Lung ultrasound can accurately quantify the loss of pulmonary aeration before, after end during the weaning trial by calculating the Lung Ultrasound Score (LUS). Investigators have recently demonstrated in a prospective two-center study of 100 patients that the intensity of the lung aeration loss occurring during the weaning trial, was predictive of the development of postextubation respiratory distress within 48 hours following extubation. A LUS ≥ 14 could identify patients at high risk of developing postextubation respiratory distress. A second study that investigators have just completed in 80 patients weaned from mechanical ventilation shows a 30% reduction of respiratory distress in post-extubation High Flow Nasal Cannula oxygen group compared to a standard O2 group.

The establishment of a targeted therapeutic strategy proposed in a group of high-risk patients, defined as having a ≥ 14 LUS at the end of the weaning trial could reduce the incidence of extubation failure and associated morbidity and mortality.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing high-flow nasal cannula oxygen and Conventional oxygen therapy in people with High-flow Nasal Cannula Oxygen, run by lu xiao.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Feb 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To decrease the incidence of extubation failure within 48 hours after a successful spontaneous breathing trial in ICU patients. (time frame: 48 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Feb 2018.
